Hi there, UPDATE 2020 Having some time out from work and fancy a few bass lessons? Well, get in touch and we can set something up over Skype! Reasonable rates. I'm an advocate of learning as many great bass lines as possible to improve your vocabulary and theory knowledge. I've gathered a great library of transcriptions and would love to guide you through some of your favourite baselines! Whether using notation or TAB. If you wanna check me out feel free to google Ian King Bassist or find me on Instagram under iankingbass Here's my biog if you want to know a bit more about me: Bass player Ian King has worked with The Temptations, The Supremes, Sister Sledge, Ronan Keating, Huey Lewis, Paul Young, Rick Astley and Albert Lee. Ian has toured arenas with Andrew Lloyd Webber’s ‘Jesus Christ Superstar’, ‘Dr.Who Live!’ and ‘Symphonic Rock with The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra’. He has held the bass chair in the West End for Dreamgirls, The Book of Mormon, Shrek the Musical, Sister Act, Hairspray, Fame & Daddy Cool and is currently playing in Hamilton at The Victoria Palace Theatre, London. TV and studio credits include The Graham Norton Show, The Ruth Jones TV specials, Strictly Dance Fever, Zingzillas and the Tenors of Rock. http://basschat.co.uk/topic/297997-in-praise-of-ian-king-kingbassist/page__p__3224207__hl__ian king__fromsearch__1#entry3224207 http://basschat.co.u..._1#entry2744871

Hi again.. Yes it was a Mark Bass rig.. it was a rental so I'm not 100% sure what the head was, TA501 possibly?? It had a tube in the preamp.. Nice front ported 4x10 cab.. sounded great!

[quote name='dmccombe7' timestamp='1485459156' post='3224161'] That was a great VID clip. The full band were pretty impressive. Bass was very crisp and clear but then again Overwater basses do tend to be that way. (I have 2) Wish i could play that good. Those vocals were damned impressive i have to say. Out of curiosity what amp was used that night ? I was sure i saw a Markbass cab behind Ian. Dave [/quote]

Hi guys, Just wanted to say hi and thanks so much for the kind words, I'm humbled.. I feel really lucky to have been asked to play in some great shows and don't take it for granted.. I played in 'The Book of Mormon' for 3 and 1/2 years and the MD of that show was leaving to start 'Dreamgirls' and he kindly asked if I wanted to move across with him.. I'm glad I did as it's turning out to be a really fun show, and a great play for a bass player.. It hasn't been done for 35 years but still sounds fresh in my opinion.. In Amber Riley's defence, we appeared on the Graham Norton show before the musical had even opened.. We had just met her and read the chart down that morning.. She had zero experience singing with a band at that point and was extremely nervous I think.. She's quickly settled into the show and sounds amazing I have to say, and with that confidence comes a bit of light and shade in her performance.. I think if you saw her live now you'd be really impressed, she brings the house down every night! Regarding gear, I exclusively use Overwater basses now. I have two Jazz 5's and a hybrid Jazz 5 fretless.. They're all wonderful and I highly recommend them, Chris May and the guys at Overwater have been honing their art for many years now and the results are there to see.. A lot of West End players use them as they're reliable, extremely playable and free of hum/buzz/interference which is important in theatres.. I'm particularly impressed with the John East Uni-Pre at the moment and that's in the black bass in the clip above.. Check their basses out at http://overwaterbasses.com (and no I don't get a tenner for saying that!). Well thanks again, all the best....

Hi there... Yes, it's the matching Fretless... It now has Nordstrand Big Splits in it which sound better (to my ears) than the EMG's did... Gonna take pics after my matinee and get them up on here.. -

Many thanks, Ian

Anyone been to the gallery and checked these cabs out yet?
-
Hi Mykesbass, yeah I know what you mean.. Could do with more info really, especially the frequency response.. I had an Epifani 1x10" once and it rolled off well before the B string.. Real shame as it sounded great... Maybe with time they'll give more specs on the site... And Steve, they're not active, just very pricey! Hmmmm...

http://www.db-bass.com/db-bass/embee_210.html http://www.db-bass.com/db-bass/embee_12.html It would be between these two for me.....

Just wondering if anyone's got any experience with these relatively new cabs.. On paper they look amazing, I love the concept of having the speaker facing up at you within the cabinet... They're selling them at The Gallery... Anyone tried one?
